Protecting your data (Security)

Your CLIE handheld includes a Security application that allows you to
protect your data from unauthorized users.
In Security, you can do the following:

• Lock and turn off your CLIE handheld so that it does not operate until you

enter the correct password.

• Set the CLIE handheld to automatically lock at/after a preset time, or

whenever you turn it off.

• Mask all records that you mark as private so the information appears

greyed out.

• Hide all records that you mark as private so they do not appear on any

screen.

You can mask or hide private records with or without a password. Without
a password, private records are hidden or masked until you set the Security
application to show them. With a password, you must enter the password to
view the private records.

Assigning a password

You can assign a password to protect your private records and to lock your
CLIE handheld.
